Just a while ago I hade a weird keymap problem on a Lenny box which looked as if it was due to user configurations: newly created users behaved differently than some older user accounts, which, in turn, behaved differently than the default account created during Lenny installation. In the end, however, the culprit turned out to be a missing line in xorg.conf! Anyway, here's how I would proceed (but your situation may be different of course): I'd create myself a new account, keeping the old non-working account as backup only. Then, instead of copying over the config files, I'd just manually reconfigure my new account to my liking. I know, it can be tedious, but ... Then, at my leisure, I'd copy over a config file from the old account to the new one and test it thoroughly (wait for a week or so, log in and out, preferably even reboot a couple of times). After thorough testing, I'd copy over another config file. And so on. Hopefully, you only have a couple of config files complex enough to be worth copying over; as for the rest, you may be better off recreating them from scratch. P.S. Your ~/.config subtree is also worth checking out (besides .gconf, .gconfd,.gnome, .gnome2 and so on) -- Regards, Klistvud Certifiable Loonix User #481801 http://bufferoverflow.tiddlyspot.com _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
